The murder trial for Quincie Mc Lennan called “Killer” continued yesterday before Madame Justice Dawn Gregory.
Mc Lennan, who hails from Buxton, East Coast Demerara, is accused of killing Hansel Melville, on January 11, 2004.
State prosecutors Konyo Sandiford and Judith Gildharie-Mursalin are presenting the case, while Mc Lennan is being represented by attorney at law Basil Williams. The proceedings commenced on Tuesday with a voir dire, in the absence of the mixed jury. Yesterday Police Sergeant Chabinauth Singh was able to conclude his evidence in chief. He was cross examined by Williams and re-examined by the prosecution.
The matter will continue on Monday before Justice Gregory.
The prosecution is fighting for the admittance of a caution statement, which was allegedly given by the defendant on May 29, 2004.
Mc Lennan was committed to stand trial in the High Court back in 2005 for the murder.
